1
Muddle Mint and Lime Juice
In a sturdy glass, add the fresh mint leaves and pour in the fresh lime juice. Using a muddler or the back of a spoon, gently press the mint leaves to release their essential oils. Be careful not to tear the leaves too much.
2
Add Simple Syrup and Rum
Pour the simple syrup over the muddled mint and lime mixture. Next, add the white rum. Stir gently to combine all the ingredients.
3
Add Ice
Fill the glass with ice cubes to the top, ensuring that the mixture is well chilled.
4
Top with Club Soda
Slowly pour the club soda over the ice until the glass is nearly full, allowing the bubbles to mix with the other ingredients.
5
Garnish and Serve
Garnish the cocktail with a lime wedge and a sprig of mint. Optionally, stir gently to combine before serving. Enjoy your refreshing Mojito!
